Poems For Review / Re: Angels And Virgins by krystophyr(m): 10:43am On Oct 01, 2013 |
S T R U C K!!! So hear You know I am already a fool When it comes to you I stalk you like a haunter A haunter ill-prepared To apprehend the victim So that each time I come close to you I am all amped up Adrenaline pouring through my blood As I prepare to hop on you And claim you for myself But at the climax of my anxiety I am reminded that There really is no way to bring it through This lack makes me burn hotter with sickening desire For a moment You look in my direction Just in time to see me on fire Oh darn! I reek of burns I try to run away But the trail of smoke betrays me wickedly You try to reach for me But, again, I think What will be the end to it What happens after you catch up to me Stand and stare me in the face So I run Adrenaline oozing through my sweat A strong pheromone On someone dreading attention And you chase me Why you do I don’t know But I won’t even dare to ask that If and when you should catch up with me I just run Like a foolish lion Who faced a horned antelope To discover late That he hadn’t grown any tooth or claw! |

the grinch: @krystophyr while your argument is logical, and you are right about somethings (even the devil is scripturally correct sometimes), you like evryone else are trimming leaves and not uprooting the tree of the matter... Grinch, I have addressed #1 in my reply to your previous comment. Indeed, I totally agree with you about many of these things you have said. And yes, nothing is really mine. My life ain't mine. However, I have not been instructed to tithe. If you call studying and trying to understand Scriptures without swallowing age-old unscriptural teachings psychoanalyzing, then I plead guilty. If you call sharing of what truths I have learnt from Scriptures so someone may benefit psychoanalyzing, then I plead guilty. |

the grinch: I can see that there are a lot of educated illiterates in this place. Grinch, If I am the educated illiterate, I frankly am not offended, but please calling people names could make them disregard any sound argument you present thereafter. I think you already have been baited into it. Hehehehehe. Welcome. I don't think it's wrong. You might share something some of us have not known. Not everyone may agree though with all you say. As for scripture being for only Christians, how then will unbelievers be Christians? Scriptures also contain how unbelievers may become Christians, and is written to more than a particular group of people. These things you have said, e.g., about washing plates... sowing spiritually.... are quite acceptable, but they also apply to giving in general. That part about sowing to the ministers in carnal things was never mentioned in connection with tithes. So, how can it be linked to it so readily? |

The first piece was better, IMHO. Some nice lines there... lust like Noah's dove... Cupid's naughty part... A tad more amusing though is the drama between you and Cath. |

Another discussion on tithing. Well, I think some people may still learn from it like I have. We don't know it all. And the matter still affects many today. Though, I wish discussions about faith, helping others, internet fraud, etc could also be on fire. Hehehehehe. I am okay with the fact that not everybody will agree with what I am about to say. I only need one person to agree. 1. I hope the anti-tithers don't crucify those who tithe. If you really have rev/rhema from scriptures, then please you should also know that you are to correct in love. If tithing is indeed wrong. 2. I hope we realise that tithing (or the absence of tithing) is not the beginning and ending of Christianity. So, at the day's end, we don't need to take it bloody-personally, especially if/when we don't take other issues of God that seriously. 3. For the tithers, please pardon my mentioning your pastor, but if your pastor should preach another gospel besides Christ, will you follow? Because some of us seem to hold our pastors' words as law without checking if they are scriptural or not. Whilst I believe some Christians have "deeper" rev of Scriptures, I do remember Paul not seeing himself as law, but says he should be followed only as he followed Christ. So, if he stopped following Christ, how will they know he stopped if they themselves didn't know zilch/nothing about Christ. 4. Commenters before me have mentioned the parts of the Old Testament that speak about tithing, and I think some of us should agree with me that we don't even practise tithing as it was commanded, we don't practise other similar practices in the old testament (and please note that not only tithing has curses attached, because the books of the laws had curses attached.) So, be afraid if you have not offered any sacrifices in a while. 5. When Jesus said he didn't come to destroy the laws and the prophets, did he mean that an eye for an eye still held, or that we should make peace offerings, or that a woman menstruating should be temporarily shunned, or that we should give tithes of our farm produce? 6. I am just curious why Jesus or the disciples did not pay tithe at least from this same Bible we read. Or, when the church was starting, the apostles did not speak of tithing. I would assume something that causes so much wahala today would have been mentioned a bit. Offerings were collected as people willed for purposes. No mention of tithing. If we are so desperate to wanna tie God down and force him to bless us, why not do that with our simple faith in his care for us/our welfare and our freewill offerings knowing that he owns all? I think we have to choose if the issues simply explained in the scriptures are enough for us or we just wanna attach complicated meanings to the Bible always. And this means the gospel of a God who became man (not just carrying on human skin) and died as a sinner only to rise again and save us from the sins we still commit today is something very complex too and we need someone to explain it to us even after we are saved. Pardon the sarcasm, but if we regard tithing or salvation or faith as something for only the great men of God to understand, then maybe we are not even saved, and what will we say to more-coded issues of the end-of-the-world (eschatology) and the Antichrist? 1 Like |

Poems For Review / Angels And Virgins by krystophyr(m): 10:41pm On Aug 16, 2013 |
Come play with us Angels sometime, As God’s wonders treat us to an awesome time, Whilst earthlings are ignorantly declaring, Babbling about KNOWING that heaven is boring. Then the Father summoned Gabriel telepathically, “A top-secret mission.” He told him emphatically. Can’t divulge the details on nairaland.com; Neither will any get it on google.com. With Jesus ’ joy in our hearts We rode off in gliding carts, All the while making merry On our way to meet Teri. We had a dialogue her at the synagogue: “Sirs, I only did "it" with a mere dog; Surely you can overlook that.” she was saying. We weren’t waiting to indulge her braying! We RAN across Lori in a shocking marvel. Our eyes shall not see evil. For our Lori most awesome Was deeply in "it" with two at once! We argued with Kari at the temple. Her knowledge of philosophy and logic was ample. “Sirs, hymen intact, who says my giving a “Mouth Action” is wrong?” We answered her from our escaping wagon! “Boy!” Gabriel did exclaim, “Man is sadly lame - Insisting that legal/acceptable and right are the same, When Creator-God already defined right and holy And made His truth available to all freely.” We picked Mary away from the market, Where she was feeding her monkey from her basket, Whilst teaching the teenagers sex education, Though she herself had never been involved in fornication. Top-secret mission accomplished at long last, We settled down to having a blast: Earthquakes, as our rocky missiles sent demons reeling, And we set ablaze their asses with bolts of lightning! Epilogue (THE BIRTH OF JESUS) : And Mary the true virgin became pregnant with an unusual child, uncontaminated with the fallen nature of man. At the fullness of time, she was delivered (yours truly being the Doctor-in-attendance) of a bouncing baby boy Jesus. THANK YOU. Spoiler-alert! The word “Mouth Action” did not exist then. |
Poems For Review / The Ghost Speaks by krystophyr(m): 8:08pm On Aug 16, 2013 |
[Word help: Booze - alcohol, hot, ogogoro, oti, "33". Psychedelic- having to do with art (singing, writing, drawing, etc.) by someone high on alcohol, dope, cocaine, or any psychoactive substance. Teetotaller - someone who doesn't drink alcohol. Viperoid - like a viper Delightsome - sweet, lovely, makes one happy.] Okay, enough of the grammar . Here we go! INTRO... Roll the booze out into the streets The writer is awake now And unlike some of his psychedelic colleagues This one is a complete teetotaller MAIN... Darkness creeps in on the globe As viperoid children dance out Spraying “goodness” all over the place But thanks, I’ll pass I don’t need your charitable donation A lovely venomous gift Perfect poison for the pure soul Birthing the gentle worm of darkness The adorable monster that men are addicted to The weakness in the souls of men The silent dark shadow following them Even in broadest sunlight Despite their sparkling wears and smiles The soft white delightsome maggot Laughing sweetly with them With sparkling teeth like a sharp saw Eating away at the soul of the host Soon that man is seen for the rot that he really is You wriggle your seductive hips in my face But I want none of what you are selling I have lost appetite for that forbidden fruit Let me write and live and sleep in peace What more can you want from me After all, I have made my bedroom Six feet below the ground level At perfect unison with earth and bones Will you rock or turn on my knocked-out senses Or can you corrupt a dead man Heck! I am not praying for the day to dawn I am not hoping for an escape from the dark My light may not be more than 12volts’ worth But in the darkest of periods it will shine Despite the corruptions of souls and institutions Because I am like a ghost among the living OUTRO... Though the grave burns The ghost still R.I.P.s Thank you. 1 Like |

Hello housemates, I am a new member saying hello. Nice to meet the house. Been a guest for quite a while and was sure to a good degree I wanted to be a member. The house seems pretty interesting. Kudos to Cuddlemii in particular. I guess I'll come to appreciate the rest as we interact more closely. I think I am part of the house as from now and so also partly responsible if it doesn't continue to bubble. You guys rock! |
